County SUPPLEMENTARY

understand that Mr.. a. Frank Hess,
son of Mr.. John Hess, late County Su-
perintendent, is Il candidate for the un-
expired term of his father. AS a large
proportion of the work for the last quar-
ter-which ends June 30Ih neXt-has
already been accomplished, and as Mr..
Hess Is thoroughly conversant with the
duties Of the position, having given
great assistance to his father, we think
that his appointment would be All emil
nently proper and satisfactory one. The
presidents of the boards of education Of
the county meet ut CharlestOwn to-day
for the purpose of selecting a County
Superintendent, and we hope that Mr..
Hess may be their choice. We under
stand he will not be a candidate for the
position at the Nav election.

A Suggestion to the Travelling Public

Tourists, emigrants and mariners find that
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is a medicinal
safeguard against unhealthful influences, up
on which they can implicitly rely, since IL pre-
vents the effects OF vitiated atmosphere, I'M
accustomed or unwholesome diet, bad water,
or other conditions unfavorable 10 health.
On long voyages, or Journeys in ATTITUDES adj
jacent 10 the equator, IL Is especially useful as
a preventive of the febrile complaints and
disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels,
which are apt to attack natives OF the tenn
perate zone sojourning or travelling in such
regions, and II is an excellent protection
agai INST the influence OF extreme cold, sudden
changes of temperature, exposure to damp or
extreme fatigue. II not only prevents inter-
mittent and remittent fever, and other dis
eases OF a malarial type, but eradicates them,
a fact which has been notorious for years past
in North and South America, Mexico. the
West Indies, Australia, and other countries.
That tired feeling and loss Of appetite are
entirely overcome by Hoods Sarsaparilla,
the peculiar medicine. Try 1t and see.

Canals Tolls Reduced.-Tollso on
the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal were re.
duced 10 the figures named below at a
meeting of the directors in Baltimore
last week. The toll on coal from Cum
berland to Georgetown on east-bound
and coastwise shipments was put at
thirty-four cents. The toll to Williams
port was placed at eighteen cents, re-
duction of four cents. These changes
will be submitted to the Board of Public
Works for approval. The secretary was
directed to give notice to holders of re.
pair bond coupons, due July 1st, that
they will be paid, on and after that date,
at the Farmers and Merchants Bank.
Colonel Baughman said that the reduc-
tons in canal tolls had been made with
the. expectations tina. coal shippers
would send as much coal by water as
possible, and unless the result is heavy
shipments, nothing further can be done
but sell the canal. as e board is not
willing to conduct it at loss to the
State. Coal shipments so far have not
been very liberal, although the canal is
i'm first class condition for business.
